For long time fans this is easily the biggest rivalry game for the year. Glad to have it! 3 straight losses to CU has a lot of fans feeling pi$$ed off. TV broadcasters will be riding the Sanders family meat (Travis Hunter too). Big opportunity to shut them all up. Nebraska needs this win!
Colorado hate week is over!! Fvck sC.Um!!
- Thread starter HBK4life
- Start date
Awesome idea. I’m ordering some bison meet right now!
agree. This is going to be one of the loudest games in history when we do great things during thew game and after we win. Fans are already. Tired of losing especially to CU. All day to tailgate. I plan to not talk for a week after Saturday night at Memorial.
This is hands down sC.Um winners of the 3 teams I despise the most. Texas fans are nice but arrogant as hell. Iowa fans are just annoying little brothers talking shit on the internet. Colorado fans are pure filth. They don't show up to support Colorado. They show up to hate CSU and Nebraska. All spoiled left coast lib trash. Fvck em.
Even Iowa Fan is eleventybillion times more tolerable than the sCUm's out West...
And while I Live in Texas, this household refuses to acknowledge the burnt orange, like Ever and I'd still have a beer with one of them over sCUm
Has there been a team that NU has played since the days of OU led by Switzer and the Hurricanes led by Johnson/Erickson that flashes the cockiness and bravado like the Sanders-led Buffs? We've played plenty of confident and good teams, but I really can't remember any that had that arrogance and flash that really makes you hate them like the Buffs and their coach. Hard to explain to younger fans what that looked like with Sooners/Hurricanes, but its what made a couple of those Huskers victories against those teams amongst the most memorable of my lifetime. The Hurricanes might have been the worst in the late 80s and 90s. I can remember going to Boulder to watch the Buffs/Hurricanes play in '93. It was the only game in my lifetime I think I actually rooted for the Buffs - I hated the Hurricanes and their act that much.
deion was pretty complimentary in his presser, similar to Rhule:
“First of all, I have a ton of respect for Matt Rhule,” Sanders said. “He’s in – I call it our class of coaches. We all took on a tremendous test that year (2022) … So, I feel like we’re a fraternity. So, I root for that class of head coaches that came in that year.
“Pro. He’s a professional; did a phenomenal job (with the Carolina Panthers), maybe not the job that he aspired to do, but he has a ton of experience, and I love what he’s accomplished in his college coaching career.”
“I look for them to be physically tough, imposing; try to run the football,” Sanders said. “They have a freshman quarterback that had a pretty good day last week. But we’ve got to do what we do. We’ve got to go in and do what we’re capable of doing.”
more on DR:
“You attack weaknesses. I don’t know if you attack inexperience,” Sanders said. “If that’s a weakness, so be it. But the kid made some darn good throws and pretty good plays. They did some consistent things that we knew they would do within their offense. A phenomenal game…
“But I love what he showed in his first college game ever. I loved what he showed.”

this is a no brainer
CU fans in a landslide. the absolute worst.
UT fans are generally a great time.
iowa doesn't really have many fans and the ones they do have seem to be on their best behavior in Lincoln every other year.
Yep. Agree with that. The fans that are the absolute worst I have dealt (In this order):
1. CU - The absolute worst.
2. Mizzou - A close second
3. (Tie) Penn St & Wisconsin - Big gap from the first 2
All other fans I've encountered are just normal fans. Some good ribbing and fandom, but nothing nuts like the top 2.
There is no way that the Deion Sanders experience at CU ends in anything other than a spectacular crash and burn. It may not be this year, maybe not next (but probably next). The nauseating and undeserved hype has already turned on them - and no one is asking for more manufactured hype. They’ve accomplished nothing and nothing grand is on the horizon.
Many Io_a fans are convinced NU is their big rival. They have no clue, none.
Dude, that sounds amazing. With swiss cheese.
edit: and sauteed onions and peppers!
Oh, I know. Iowa fans think we see them as a big rival too. But they do not stir the anger or generate the excitement that playing CU does, or if we played Texas. If we lose to CU again and the rivalry goes back into dormancy… 😡 😠 😠 😤
Under the radar POS fan base- Iowa State, made a road trip there back in 2010 where haag sealed overtime win, their fans are pure trash.
Was that the same game they tried to twist Burkhead’s head off on the goal line?
Yes. Legate got a 15 yarder for going after the guy
I’d put Michigan State with Penn State and Wisconsin based on my experience in East Lansing. Definitely the trash in Michigan is there. Walking to the stadium was something else, they even cussed at my 12 year old son (at the time 12). Unprovoked Sh!t talking during the game from morons by us. Then we allowed that late punt return for TD and Adrian tossed int in OT. Afterwards the crowd yelling Nebraska sucks….well it to OT for MSU to win. Pure Michigan trash.
His best out for legacy purposes would be to move on after this season. Win 9 games, finish ranked top 25, 2 top 10 draft picks, plus a few others later in draft, ride off. That would be a pretty amazing run all things considered.
If he stays it will be a disaster of epic proportions.
If he hits 9 wins, do you see him getting a Power 2 job? Like at Florida?
I could see programs kicking the tires to see if he'd be interested, I question if the drive is there since his son is now gone at that point and his health isn't the best.
To me this has to be an all or nothing year for Deion... once Shilo & Hunter graduate what does he have left? Mad respect to both of those dudes, they Truly can play!
That said, a team doesn't just pick right back up after losing a duo like that... Yes he loves the portal but as we're seeing at FSU that's not sustainable long term.
I always felt like Deion was short time at CU so he could get back to FSU and coach. If he does well this year and if Norvell gets canned (Might happen if this losing keeps up) then I can see it all play out... anything else is as you put it a "Spectacular Crash & Burn"!
I am not sure I can even watch this game. I am already stressing out about it. Too many times have we choked in games the last 7 years. I didn't watch last year's game because we were in Europe. Glad I missed it.
This is the same team from last year. They have 2 absolute studs and nothing else. NU should win and Rhule better have the team ready to go. Last year was embarrassing because these guys are not good and the blueprint is just to play physical. Their D-Line is meh, their LB's are not good and their secondary outside of Hunter are suspect as well.
I hope Rhule keeps the foot on the gas when we go up early.

I listened to his presser. Lot of praise for DR and MR. Interesting he had a bunch of speaking points and struggled to name some of his old players.
Mentioned in his PC after NDSU that he was unaware that coaches met prior to the game on the field to exchange pleasantries … “I’m new to that, didn’t realize that was a thing” or something to that effect.
Dudes been around football all his life and been coaching for the last three years and didn’t know that was a thing. Slow learner apparently.
We might be in trouble after this pep talk. Pretty emotional stuff.
Sounds like a guy giving a life insurance seminar.
